                    Let's not act like Toronto is a great fan base. Check out the attendance for a good 85 win team in 2010. They support their team only when they win. Judge a fan base by how they show up when the team isn't winning (Cubs and Cards).

                      They are giving away tickets practically for free. Texas best team in al.
                      Still cant get rid of them.


                      When toronto teams doing poor attendence is down. We are talking about the playoffs though. You will never find an empty seat at a raptors leafs or blue jays playoff game

                              Friday Night Lights. Texas is a very religious state and they don't worship baseball. It's just something to get you by.

                                Snowball i know where they play dude.

                                I was saying for the price of 2 beers at rogers centre in toronto you can get yourself a decent seat at a playoff game in arlington. In toronto for standing level above the 500 level seats prices starting at 120usd

                                      Most people in the metroplex work during the day ( this area is really a 9-5 economy, not a lot of 2nd or 3rd shift worker) therefore day games are difficult. I know that it is a playoff game, but the area around Globe Life is terrible for traffic because of continued road construction. Traffic absolutely sucks regardless if you are coming from Dallas or Fort Worth and there is no public transportation to the area because the Cowboys would never allow that to happen and cut into the 40 to 75 dollar parking.
                                      I live 40 miles away and I can promise it would have been 2 hours to get there and at least that long to get out and get home.......no thanks I will stay at the house and watch on the big screen and then turn on Boston/Cleveland or NFL or NCAAF afterwards.

                                        If the Cowboys were doing shittier then the Rangers would have more people at the games.

                                          Getting the weekday afternoon games would hurt attendance id think. Texas did get screwed. Got two of them. P.u.

                                                Thought this thread was about Mrs Opie after Rangers got wiped yesterday.

                                                Hopefully she mastered the Mayweather shoulder roll after the Vegas incident.

                                                    MLB Playoff game folks.
                                                    Even if they played at 6am the venue would be sold out....anywhere but Texas.

                                                      Texas averaged over 33k per game this year...

                                                      Most Texans are working at 4pm and 1pm.

                                                        Even if they played at 6am the venue would be sold out....anywhere but Texas.
                                                        One of the dumbest things I've see today.

                                                        Barely understand what the fk you are trying to say? Where would the game sell out at 6am?

                                                        Texas was 10th in attendance and when you consider the population in Arlington, about 330k, it shoes you that Texas fans are way more loyal than most cities.

                                                                Which team you like lb.? You think your team should have its home games in playoffs at noon during the weekday? Say it. And give reasons why you think its such a great idea? Texas played hard all season and got the shaft on its playoff home games. Pretty simple to me.. Noon weekday home games for the #1 team in american league. Its a dis.* right now i cant watch the texas game im at work. If they were slotted for primetime like boston got both games primetime id be able to watch the rangers tonite. They could of split it up had boston start at 3p today and have texas go at 8p. But its about ratings on tv
